Retinal detachment and HLA typing.

105 patients with retinal detachment were HLA types and divided into hyperopic, emmetropic and myopic groups. None of these different groups showed a statistically significant correlation with any of the HLA antigens. For the patient group as a whole, there was a slightly significant correlation with HLA-B8 at the corrected p level of 0.05.

Complications in 1,000 consecutive intracapsular cataract extractions.

In a series of 1,000 consecutive intracapsular cataract extractions, the most important peroperative complications were rupture of the capsule in 6.5% of the cases and vitreous loss in 3.0%. The most important immediate postoperative complications were delay in wound closure in 2.7% of the cases, iritis in 2.9%, ocular hypertension in 3.4%, and some other complications. The late complications were an Irvine-Gass syndrome in 2.8% of the cases, an epithelial downgrowth in the anterior chamber in 0.6%, and a retinal detachment in 2%. alpha-Chymotrypsin often causes a temporary ocular hypertension (in at least 25.2% of the cases). The functional results are very good, when there is no pre-existing ocular pathology: in 90% of the cases the vision was 7/10 or more.

Scleral pockets and lyophilized sclera in retinal detachments.

For our buckling operations in retinal detachment, we prefer lyophilized sclera because it is well tolerated without tissue reaction, and very easy to handle. Its inertness is demonstrated by histopathological examination of sclera fragments taken during reoperations.
